Nokia 2323 Classic Mobile Phone
By: Shayne Rana   |   Sep 02, 2009

Music player has good sound
Plenty of useful features
Life Tools are handy
Decent battery life
The UI fonts can be a bit 'in your face'

It would be completely wrong for anyone to presume that the Nokia 2323 Classic is just a very basic low end budget handset. In fact you’d be absolutely wrong if you did. Inequitably wrong. But here’s the overall picture.

Form Factor
The 2323 Classic comes with a sleek yet simple design. The keypad is large and comes with a mix of Hindi and English alphabets and with good reason - I’ll explain later. The five way nav-pad is large and comfortable for navigation. The device has a 1.8-inch TFT LCD display and sports a 128 x 160 pixel resolution and 65K colors. It’s a light weight handset and so extremely easy to tote around. On one side at the top it has a port flap that conceals the charging port, a proprietary USB port as well as a 2.5mm earphone socket.


The rear panel is kind of a lock shut system that once closed it’s really hard to open irrespective of the release button on top.

Features and Performance
Interface
Running on a Symbian OS with a Series 40 UI, the handset is easy enough to use. The UI itself is fluid and smooth. Animations in the transition effects give it a very friendly and tech-savvy look and feel to it. What bothers me is that although the 2323 has a large display, the fonts are too large and options tend to look a little clustered together but there’s still plenty of space all around. There was no way of reducing the size except for certain options.


The keypad language settings will allow users to switch between Hindi, English, Gujarati and even Marathi with the UI giving way to the adjusted language.

Media
The handset is curiously equipped with a music player that reads AAC, AMR and MP3 formats as well as a video player that reads 3GP files. What’s curious about it is that it has no support for a memory card and comes with just 32MB of internal space. Nokia hasn’t even included a USB cord for transferring files though Bluetooth 2.0 is readily available. The FM radio which works just fine comes with a recording option as well. A stand alone voice recorder is also present.

I've just bought a Nokia 2323 and I have a question concerning the SMS font size: when I set it to normal size, it's normal when i'm texting, but when i receive a SMS it is very small. When I set it to big, it is normal when receiving, but huuuge when texting. Could you help me please??? :smileysad:(

hey got it for Rs.2250.......a perfect low budget phone which has almost everything...its just that the memory is a bit of a prob for students esp....but cant get anything better than this in 2250..hahaha...nokia ppl....increase a bit of a price n include a card slot....else everything is just fine....
Anks...... @ Nov 04, 2009
I bought this phone in June for Rs.3100. Very good value for money and yes....Nokia... why did you not put a card slot in this Phone??!! The phone UI is slow though.. one cannot do stuff fast when in a tearing hurry.....
And one more thing...... whose lame brained Idea was it to fix the speaker on the back of the phone?? Try listening to the phone ring if placed on a soft surface eg. on the bed or a sofa. HAH!

adhi @ Sep 14, 2009
NOKIA are Worst makers when it comes to Low Budget. Couldn't they have included a Memory Card slot?? Even LG/Samsung are giving it at 2600 Rs.!!!!

Hey, I have bought the phone last week for 2625 rs, Navi Mumbai. The battery life very very good. The sound quality is also excellent.
The only prob I found is of the memory, which is only 10Mb and not expandable also.
But still is good for low cost if you like NOKIA....
Saurabh @ Sep 09, 2009
itz ful to blast @rs2900
bt un-expandable memory bothers me
any suggestion with this feature added
daksh @ Sep 04, 2009
The rpice is given as 2891, which I think is very reasonable keeping in mind all the durability which comes with Nokia phones and its features are also very extensive. A additional memory cardslot would have made it the best seller .
Himanshu @ Sep 03, 2009
but wat abt its cost ......then only the real comparison could b possible
